Well we asked for it and we got it, it finally warmed up!
Its hard to believe we were still wearing coats in mid May, I
guess I don't understand global warming.
Things to watch out for in the next few weeks. Your plants have
had a perfect growing environment the last 6 weeks. Cool days, with
cooler nights, abundant moisture, and some sunshine, if you were a
tree, all would be right in your world!
Then the sun came out ,the temperature went to 89 degrees and
the wind started blowing. Don't be surprised to see your plants hang
their heads in the afternoon on a bright sunny afternoon. They are
acclimating themselves to the warmer weather (just as we are).
Plan on watering a little more often, a good thorough soaking is
always better than just spritzing the plant. Unless your watering a
flower, or a very small shrub you do not need to water every day.
Believe it or not we see more plants die to over watering, than
under watering! If you keep soil to wet, especially heavy clay type
soils, your roots will rot. They actually drown!
So never be afraid to stick your finger or a long screw driver
into the soil 3-6" and see just how wet it is in the root zone!
Till next time,
Thank you from the Bornholdt Clan !
